Shake off day

Shake off the day

With a shake of the head
What news
have you been feed

Someone died?
A person lost?
then you cried?

crippling legs?
memory on hold?

Is this the day you are told

Every moment in time
revels

That we are not adhere
to any and each moment

To see what
for one seals

Memory is such a life on its own

Creep forward
Gather the precious line
Give
In their tone

That was a good read. It is the time gathering memories that can be sad

well put, memories can be haunting or sweet but to live in them is so bittersweet. Can I use this poem to send to my friend who is dieing of cancer?

Dear Mimzy
With all my heart, what words curtail, to be shared, is a beautiful thing.

For your friend......With each day with the sun rising if we cannot see it, or can not hear the tones, we certainly can bask in the gentle
warmth.

Love Sophie
